Just a month after celebrity chef Bobby Flay filed for divorce from his wife allegations have been made about Flay and his assistant. Elyse Tirrell has been reported by Page Six to be involved with Flay. The chef and his Law & Order actress-wife, Stephanie March, are in the midst of a messy divorce having been married since 2005.

Here’s what you need to know:

1. She’s ‘About to Become the Monica Lewinsky of the Food World’

The revelations originated from March’s friend, fellow actress, Maia Madison. She told the New York Post that back during Thanksgiving 2014 “She came to my house and was sobbing uncontrollably. She said, ‘I can’t believe the last 10 years of my life have been a lie.'” Madison added that Tirrell was “about to become the Monica Lewinsky of the food world.” Another friend of Stephanie March told People “This is a very difficult time for Stephanie who is also busy assisting her mother with some serious health issues.”

We will continue to refrain from responding to the continued efforts by certain parties to spread rumors and innuendo. This specific allegation was in a letter sent from one attorney in this case to the other. It was written and then leaked specifically to try to insert this story into the press, and that’s unfortunate. Even more unfortunate is that all of this is being done in order to renegotiate a prenuptial agreement that was agreed to over a decade ago and never amended during the marriage.

Fighting in Flay’s corner is the chef’s business partner Laurence Kretchmer who to Page Six that other scandals could be brewing saying “As ugly as Stephanie is going to look [when this news comes out], she will look uglier when other things come out.”

2. One of Her Roles Is to Make Sure ‘Bobby Is Always Caffeinated’

In 2008, Tirrell was hired by Flay to work at his Bar Americain restaurant in Midtown Manhattan. Later, she was promoted to his assistant, according to her bio on Flay’s website. As his assistant, she “is the master scheduler, maintaining Bobby’s ever-changing, always challenging, never empty calendar. Never without her phone or her tablet, Elyse also plays the roll of concierge, making reservations, hunting down elusive ingredients, and making sure Bobby is always caffeinated.” She frequently writes blogs on Flay’s website.
